Home and Away character is accidentally killed in dramatic showdown

Warning: This article contains spoilers of a scene that has aired in Australia, but is yet to broadcast in the UK.

Home and Away has killed off one of its regular characters in a big storyline twist.

In scenes that aired in Australia last night, Denny Miller was accidentally killed in a fight with Charlotte King that got out of hand.

The shocking turn of events came as Denny prepared to bid farewell to Summer Bay after deciding to travel to Europe on a backpacking adventure.

However, before heading to the airport, Denny went over to Charlotte's house, where she was shocked to find the safe that had gone missing from The Diner.

As a physical fight ensued, Denny fell to the floor and hit her head, leaving Charlotte horrified as she realised that she was dead.

Whether Charlotte will cover up her role in Denny's demise remains to be seen, but the storyline marks the end for Jessica Grace Smith's character who joined the show last year.

Taking to Twitter after her final scenes aired, the actress said: "Thanks everyone for all the love, well wishes and support over the last couple of years. Had a blast!"
